Header image is a novelty desk sign that, instead of a name or title, reads "Welcome to the shitshow," nicked from someone here. Avatar is a selfie of me standing up, outside, with a neighborhood of palm trees and stucco houses behind me. I'm wearing light sunglasses, red lipstick, and a sleeveless shirt with a balloon animal print. Not shown: my walker. #IIH #IdiopathicIntracranialHypertension #fibromyalgia #disability #TransRights
